Race Overview
MANTAHARE (7) got back to winning ways last time out in a Group race and should make her intentions clear in this contest. She is a filly with lots of ability and should fight it out. MARWA (4) showed that it was just a blip when losing her unbeaten streak and she will be challenging strongly. NOUR AL MAURY (2) returns to France after having great success here last year and she needs to be included. NORMA AL MAURY (5) is unbeaten and looks to remain that way but does return off a lengthy layoff which is a slight concern.
Selection:
7 - 4 - 2
